There has been increasing concern over the last few years about the role of books in the digital age. Many have expressed worry that the written word is under threat due to the fact that we are a world run on digital appliances. The first libraries consisted of archives of clay tablets, and during the Classical period the Library of Alexandria was the most significant library of the ancient world and served as a major centre of scholarship until the Roman conquest.
Despite digital and technological advancements, the library is still extremely central to society. As architects in London, we are committed to the preservation of these valuable structures and the important role they play. Modern libraries can successfully combine traditional elements with modern technology and become multi-functional buildings that successfully serve a wider range of needs.
A recent project we undertook consisted of working with a limited budget and constructing a welcoming library as part of the British Film Institute. The aim of the project was to entice more visitors and successfully enhance the experience for all. We created a modern and relaxed environment that incorporated all the traditional and familiar features of a library. With the installation of small and discreet components, we were able to maximise on the potential the space offered and construct a traditional library that offered the ideal research environment.
Our approach is based on our dedication to construct buildings that function well within society. Our portfolio is diverse, and we have dedicated teams of architects in London that we assign to each individual task. We constantly strive to support and enhance the connection between people and places. We take an imaginative approach to every task and aim to deliver the creative solution to every project.
By embracing the design goals we are presented with, we are able to discover the ideal way to achieve them as well as maximise on the potential offered by the space as a whole. We work closely with our clients and we encourage a collaborative relationship. We work hard to enhance your spaces and achieve the visions you have for your commercial architecture projects. Your assigned team will ensure that you remain on schedule and within budget and that every aspect of your project benefits from the innovative design capabilities of our organisation.
